=== ubuntu is now known as trinikrono [08:22] jbicha: why is gksu nautilus better than gksudo nautilus ? (curious) [08:23] (noticed it in your docs update) [08:25] um, I read the man page and gksu seemed smarter [08:25] it is at least shhorter [08:25] shorter [08:34] jbicha: hmm, the only benefit i see is that gksu offers a prompt if we dont specify a command [08:35] but we do mention nautilus here.. [08:36] vish: yeah they basically do the same thing, but one's shorter [08:37] vish: I'm actually a bit surprised you noticed the change since it's not been committed yet [08:37] ;) [08:38] jbicha: shorter ;p , i think sudo is more preferable since the sudoers file and all [08:38] vish: you mean you think they don't do the same thing? [08:39] jbicha: /etc/sudoers is used by sudo, but i dont think su user it, a lot of options are set there.. [08:40] s/user/users [08:40] err, uses* [08:40] jbicha: we should be using gksudo since we don't encourage running as root [08:41] but sudo is root and su uses /etc/sudoers [08:43] su is root but sudo can specify which users can be root [08:43] sudo runs a single command as root, su leaves you in a root shell [08:44] micahg: do you agree that gksudo is better? [08:46] http://askubuntu.com/questions/21033/what-is-the-difference-between-gksudo-and-gksu [08:48] yeah, it seems like I have the gconf key set, idk if that's the default or not though, with that key set, there's no practical difference unless you use other flags [08:50] so, while practically there is no difference, people might wonder about it [09:01] hmm, looks like we dont have the package gksudo??!! but there is kdesudo [09:02] maybe the symlink is because it aint packaged? /me looks deeper [09:02] vish: it's all provided by gksu [09:02] oh! [09:03] vish: both backends are provided by libgksu [09:03] err, both backends can be used by libgksu [09:03] yea, seems so. [09:08] ah ha! while it is a symlink, they do different things [09:08] gksu != gksudp [09:08] gksudo* [09:11] yea, the gconf set as sudo seems to be the default.. i have the same thing here.. [09:12] vish: yeah, which makes them effectively equal by default [09:13] yea, equal but it is not really su , hence the users will wonder as you say :D [09:40] Hello, I just saw that my membership for ubuntu-bugcontrol expired, can somebody reactivate?
